In an effort to save money, decrease ordering of supplies outside of supply chain, and return nursing and other clinical professionals back to their primary focus of patient care, NYC H+H is developing a clinically integrated structure. As they undergo a Kanban reorganization through careful value analysis and rapid standardization, NYC H+H is working to standardize items across their system comprised of acute and post-acute care facilities.

The organization’s current value analysis process will evolve into a clinically integrated system that is both practical and sustainable, uses best practice and evidence-based medicine, and includes all necessary stakeholders. This presentation will discuss H+H’s journey as well as what is needed for successful development and implementation of a clinically integrated team that can perform value analysis across a variety of facilities under one system.

Learning Objectives:

Explain the benefits of KanBan and associated technology as applied to supply chain and in relation to saving the time of clinical professionals

Describe the process of Rapid Standardization and its effect on a system of provider organizations

Outline the necessity of leadership involvement, principles of LEAN/Toyota Production System and sustainability of the process
